  1. In the year 1839 a great storm swept this land causing much destruction. A great number of cattle were killed and the roofs were blown of many houses.
    There were trees knocked also some fell across roads and people were unable to travel on them. A tree was blown on a house in Coolbock but the people succeeded in getting safe out of the house.
